入舵市安恙阳光实验学校Unit 1 Getting along with others一、阅读理解。
In 1959, when Jean Harper was in the third grade, her teacher gave the class an assignment to write a report on what they wanted to be when they grew up.Jean’s father was a crop dusting pilot in the little farming community in Northern California where she was raised, and Jean was very interested in airplanes and flying. She poured her heart into her report and included all of her dreams. She wanted to be a crop dusting pilot, make parachute jumps(跳伞), and be an airline pilot. Her paper came back with an "F" on it. The teacher told her it was a "fairy tale" and that none of the occupations she listed were women’s jobs. Jean was devastated and humiliated.One day in her senior year of high school, her English teacher Mrs Dorothy Slaton gave the class an assignment. "If you had unlimited money, unlimited access to the finest schools, and unlimited talents and abilities, what would you do?" Jean felt a rush of her old enthusiasm, and with excitement she wrote down all her old dreams. The teacher leaned forward over her desk and said, "You do have unlimited abilities and talents. When you leave school, if you don’t go for your dreams, no one will do it for you. You can have what you want if you want it enough."The hurt and fear of years of discouragement went away because of what Mrs Slaton had said. Jean felt excited and a little scared. She stayed after class and went up to the teacher’s desk. Jean thanked Mrs Slaton and told her about her dream of becoming a pilot. Mrs Slaton half rose and slapped the desk top. "Then do it!" she said.So Jean did. It didn’t happen overnight. It took her 10 years of hard work. It wasn’t in Jean’s nature to stand up for herself when someone refused or humiliated her. Instead, she would quietly try to find another way.She became a private pilot and then flew planes as a co-pilot (副驾驶员). In 1978, she became one of the first three female pilot trainees ever accepted by United Airlines and one of the only 50 women airline pilots in the nation at that time. Some years later, Jean Harper became a Boeing 737 captain for United Airlines.1.When Jean Harper was in the third grade, _________.A.it was common for women to be airline pilotsB. her father advised her to be a pilot like him in the futureC. she was unsure about what she wanted to be when she grew upD. she was deeply hurt by her teacher’s comment on her dreams2.What was Mrs Slaton’s reaction when she learned about Jean Harper’s dream?A. Encouraging Jean to do what she wanted to.B. Offering Jean as much help as she could.C. Persuading Jean to give up her dream.D. Making Jean aware of all the possible difficulties.3.What is the last paragraph mainly about?A. How Jean Harper achieved her flying dream.B. Jean Harper’s great achievements in flying.C. The hardships Jean Harper experienced when trying to be a pilot.D. Jean Harper’s determination to pursue her dream.4.What gave Jean Harper enough strength and faith to pursue her dream?A. Her father’s influence on her.B. Mrs Slaton’s support.C. Her decision to stand up for herself.D.A teacher’s humiliation when she was in the third grade.【文章大意】本文是一篇人物传记,介绍了Jean Harper如何在英语老师的鼓励下,实现了当一名飞行员的梦想。

The roots of this form of affection can be traced back to primitive times, when mothers fondled their children, much as mothers do today.Much later, in the sixth century, society apparently accepted the custom of kissing between adults as an expression of their affection. Not surprisingly, France first accepted kissing in courtship (求爱). There, figure dancing was popular, and each dance was sealed with a kiss.The custom of kissing swept from France through Europe to Russia, where Russian nobility loved to imitate the French. Eventually, the kiss was incorporated into marriage ceremonies, and today lip-locks couples into sweet matrimony.The custom of kissing today, as well as in ancient times, serves to pay homage to another. Early Romans kissed each other on the mouth or on the eyes to greet one another in a manner they thought to be dignified. One Roman emperor even ranked a person's importance by the body part he was allowed to kiss. He allowed important nobles to kiss his lips, less important ones to kiss his hands, and the least important ones to kiss his feet.In Russia, the highest sign of recognition from the Crown meant a kiss from the Tsar himself. Today, natives of many African tribes pay homage to their Chief by kissing the ground over which he has walked.21. What’s mainly talked about in the passage?A. The way to express love and respect.B. The expression of affection.C. The custom of kissing.D. The function of kissing.22. Which of the following can best explain the underlined word “homage” in the 4th paragraph?A. recognitionB. respectC. importanceD. loyalty23. It can be learned from the passage that ___________.A. kissing is a widely accepted way to show love and affectionB. kissing used to be a proper way to show love on the wedding ceremonyC. kissing is a widely accepted way of greeting in the worldD. kissing from the Tsar is only sign of being accepted from the Crown24. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. It was France that made the custom of kissing go to the whole world.B. Early Africans kissed each other on the mouth or on the eyes to greet one another.C. One Roman emperor allowed important nobles to kiss his nose.D. Russian nobility followed the custom of kissing from the French.25. We can infer from the passage that __________.A. mothers created the custom of kissingB. kissing means differently on different occasionsC. figure dancing was usually sealed with a kiss in RussiaD. society found it hard to accept kissing in public in the sixth centuryBo you know about a series of books that say they are “for dummies”? These American self-help books have been translated into more than thirty-nine languages including Chinese, Arabic, Russian, French, German, Greek and Spanish.“Dummy” is a word for a stupid person. The dummies books are not really for stupid people. They are designed to show people how to do something they may never have tried before, like painting a house or learning a language. The books all say in a funny way that they are for dummies, such as World History for Dummies, Rabbits for Dummies, Chinese Cooking for Dummies, and Wedding Planning for Dummies. The first such book, DOS for Dummies, was published in 1991. It helped people learn how to use the DOS operating system for computers. Since then, more than one hundred fifty million dummies books have been sold.The website explains the idea behind the books. It says that they show that people can be taught to do anything. First they can make fun of ideas that are difficult to understand. Then they show how the information can be interesting and easy. The publishers say that the books do not provide more information than necessary. They give readers just enough information to do what they want. They say that the dummies books give the best and easiest way to do something. And the books use simple and easy language.There are more than one thousand different dummies books. A report in New York Times says that the top-selling dummies books are those that explain technology and personal finance.The publishers say that the best-selling dummies books are those providing information many people need---like information about diseases, education and cooking. People interested in opera, car repair and wine can also find dummies books to help them. And there are even more dummies books to come. The publishers say that they publish about two hundred new dummies books every year.26. Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?A. Books for DummiesB. The Easiest, the BestC. Books for Stupid PeopleD. New Ideas Behind the Books27. According to the website, people can ________ with the help of dummies books.A. do some personal thingsB. learn any foreign languageC. become expert in cookingD. do anything they want28.

Golesworthy has Marfan syndrome (马凡氏综合征).Back in 1993, when he was living in the west of England, his doctor told him that the aorta (主动脉) in his heart was so enlarged that it would unavoidably burst unless he underwent a major operation.“They talked through the options,” says Golesworthy, “But I was not interested. The operati on really didn't look attractive.” What he particularly didn't like was having to be on blood thinners after the operation, something that would prevent blood clots (血栓) but presented its own risks: “I was riding motorbikes then, and skiing, so my whole li festyle would have been affected.” By 2000, however, his condition had worsened. Realizing something had to be done, Golesworthy put his years of experience as a research and development engineer to good use. He decided he would fix himself. “Learning new stuff and developing new ideas, that was my job,” Golesworthy says.The aorta, he thought, needed support on the outside. And wrapping something around the outside of the aorta would require a special operation. So Golesworthy subjected himself to 30 hours in an MRI scanner and used 3D printing to create a physical exact copy of the part of his heart. “Luckily, I'd done a lot of work with technical materials,” he says.Strong determination coupled with an original yet practical solution won him the support of two leading surgeons and helped him raise the money to develop his idea. In May 2004, at the age of 47, he became the__guinea__pig for his own invention. The operation was a success.1.Why did Tal Golesworthy refuse the operation at first?A.A better solution was on the way.B.He was afraid of life being affected.C.The risk of the operation tended to cause death.D.He would like to be operated on in his own way.2.What helped Golesworthy to fix himself?A.His creative spirit.B.Regular exercise.C.Doctors' suggestions.D.His similar experience.3.What do the underlined words in the last paragraph “the guinea pig” refer to?A.The lovely pet.B.The important assistant.C.The experimental subject.D.The person to raise money.4.Which words can best describe Tal Golesworthy?A.Creative and kind.B.Strong and imaginative.C.Devoted and generous.D.Determined and brave.B[2024·东北三校一模]What does an outdoor cat do all day? A study of more than 900 house cats shows when they kill small birds and mammals, their influence is concentrated in a small area, having a bigger effect than wild predators (捕食性动物) do.Roland Kays, a scientist at North Carolina State University and his colleagues collected GPS data from cats in six countries. “These cats are moving around thei r own backyard and a couple of their neighbors’ backyards, but most of them are not ranging very much further,” Kays said. “So initially I thought, ‘Oh, this is good news. They're not going out into the nature preserves.’”Then Kays took how much wildlife cats kill in that small area into consideration. Some cats in the study were bringing home up to 11 dead birds a month, which doesn't include what they ate or didn't bring home.“It actually ends up being a really high rate of predation,” Kays said. He calculates that cats can have 4to10 times the influence of a wild predator. Native predators, like jungle cats, also kill a lot of small animals, but their influence is spread out over a larger area. One study indicates that house cats kill billions of birds every year.“The simplest thing to do is to keep your cat indoors,” Kays said.For those who refuse to keep their cats inside, there are potential options. St. Lawrence University's associate professor Susan Willson looked for one. She found a speci al brightly colored collar online.“The whole idea is that the bird will be able to visually see the cat creeping (爬行) up on it before the cat attacks it,” she said. Willson tested the collar on both her cat and dozens of others. It greatly reduced the number of birds the cats brought home.“I'm not saying these collars can make a significant difference in the massive bird death that we're seeing,”she said. “But what matters is that each individual bird that somebody finds in his backyard is not dead.”5.W hy does Kays say “this is good news”?A.House cats can be tracked by GPS.B.House cats won't kill birds in large numbers.C.House cats are protected from wild predators.D.House cats feel comfortable in their own backyard.6.How do wild predators differ from house cats in terms of killing animals?A.They prefer to attack larger animals.B.They kill 410 times the number of house cats.C.Their victims are distributed in a bigger range.D.They kill less than house cats on a monthly basis.7.What can we infer from the passage?A.Birds can't sense the danger when cats attack them.B.Willson considers keeping her cat inside a good idea.C.The only way to protect birds is to keep them indoors.D.The colored collar can be a sign of potential danger to birds.8.Which word can best describe Willson's attitude to using collars to save birds?A.Concerned. B.Positive.C.Doubtful. D.Unclear.Ⅱ.完形填空[2024·潍坊市高三联考] A 22yearold aircraft maintenance engineer living in Dubai, Zachariah was visiting the southwest India state of Kerala for a family wedding when a lockdown was declared.

Vinegar makes salad, fries and dumplings taste better, and you can even use it to clean your windows. And now, according to scientists, it may even the planet’s population survive climate change.Researchers from the RIKEN Center for Sustainable Resource Science (CSRS) in Japan found that growing plants in vinegar makes them more resistant to droughts. This could mean that in the future, worries about cli mate change affecting the world’s supply of food will be much lower. The discovery was made after the researchers studied the Arabidopsis, a plant known for its ability to survive in dry weather. It was found that when the plant was placed in drought-like conditions, it produced a chemical called acetate(醋酸盐)—the main component of vinegar.After discovering this, the scientists experimented further by adding acetate to the soil of other plants, before they stopped giving them water completely. After leaving the plants for 14 days, they found that the ones treated with acetate had survived, while the untreated plants had dried up and died.It’s hoped that this simple method of survival could soon be used to help farmers in dry countries keep their crops alive. "In the experiment, we targeted the staple foods of the world—rice, wheat and maize—and the basic plant of breeding species, rapeseed(油菜籽)," Jong Myong Kim, co-author of the study, told Popular Science magazine.Kim also told the magazine he’s already be en in touch with people all over the world who are interested in trying this simple and cost-effective method out for themselves from flower growing companies to amateur gardeners. Although at this point keeping thirsty plants alive isn’t as easy as just p ouring vinegar over them, Kim said he and his team are working on making the process as simple as possible. "Now we are trying to cooperate with some farmers, and also some companies, to make a method to apply this system, "he said. And for those of us who always forget to ask our neighbors to water our plants when we go away, hopefully this means the end of returninghome from a trip to find our favorite flowers have died.1.What is the article mainly about?A.

At eleven, I decided to learn to swim. There was a pool at the Y. M. C. A. offering exactly the opportunity. Mother continually warned against it, and kept the details of each drowning in the river fresh in my mind. But the Y. M. C. A. pool was safe.I had a childhood fear of water. This started when I was three years old and my father took me to the beach. The huge waves knocked me down and swept over me.The pool was quiet. I was afraid of going in all alone, so I sat on the side of the pool to wait for others. Then came a big boy. He yelled, "Hi! How'd you like to be ducked?" With that he picked me up and threw me into the deep end. I landed in a sitting position, and swallowed water. But I was not frightened out of my wits — when my feet hit the bottom, I would make a big jump, and come out of the surface. It seemed a long way down. I gathered all my strength when I landed and made what I thought was a great spring upwards. Then I opened my eyes and saw nothing but water. I tried to yell but no sound came out. I went down, down, endlessly.When I came to consciousness, I found myself lying on the bed in the hospital.I never went back to the pool. I avoided water whenever I could. This misadventure stayed with me as the years rolled by. It deprived me of the joy of boating and swimming. Finally, I decided to get an instructor. Piece by piece, he built a swimmer. Several months later, the instruction was finished, but I was not. Sometimes the terror would return.This went on until July. I swam across the Lake Wentworth. Only once did the terror return. When I was in the middle of the lake, I put my face under and saw nothing but bottomless water. I laughed and said, "Well, Mr. Terror, what do you think you can do to me?"I had conquered my fear of water.1.The author's original fear of water was caused by ________.A.his poor skill in swimmingB.his mother's warning of drowningC.an outing to the beach with his fatherD.an unpleasant memory of the pool2.Why was the author not scared to death when he was thrown into the water?A.He knew how to swim in the pool.B.He felt that the Y. M.C. A. pool was safe.C.He was waiting for others to save him.D.He came up with an idea to go upwards.3.By "but I was not" in Paragraph 5 the author probably means "________".A.he was still a poor swimmerB.he had not overcome the fear yetC.he was not afraid of drowning any moreD.he was not satisfied with the swimming training4.Which of the following is the best title for the text?A.Goodbye, Mr TerrorB.Hello, Childhood FearC.A Swimming AdventureD.My Passion for Swimming5. While the start of a new school year is always exciting, this year was even more so for some elementary school students in Auckland, New Zealand. They became the world’s first kids to be “taught” by a digital teacher. Before you start imagining a human-like robot walking around the classroom, Will is just an avatar that appears on the student’s desktop, or smartphone screen, when ordered to come.The autonomous animation platform has been modeled after the human brain and nervous system, allowing it to show human-like behavior. The digital teacher is assigned to teach Vector’s “Be sustainable with energy”— a free program for Auckland elementary schools.Just like the humans it replaced, Will is able to instantly react to the students’ responses to the topic. Thanks to a webcam and microphone, the avatar not only responds to questions the kids may have, but also picks up non-verbal cues. For instance, if a student smiles at Will, he responds by smiling back. This two-way interaction not only helps attract the students’ attention, but also allows the program’s developers to monitor their engagement, and make changes if needed.Nikhil Ravishankar believes that Will-like avatars could be a novel way to catch the attention of the next generation. He says, “I have a lot of hope in thi s technology as a means to deliver cost-effective, rich, educational experience in the future.”The program, in place since August 2018, has been a great success thus far. Ravishankar says, “ What was fascinating to me was the reaction of the children to Will. The way they look at the world is so creative and different, and Will really captured their attention.” However, regardless of how popular it becomes, Will is unlikely to replace human educators any time soon.1.What was special for some elementary school students in Auckland?A.A digital teacher taught them.B.They first saw something digital.C.This was the start of a new school year.D.They could get close to smartphone screen.2.What is the benefit of this two-way interaction?A.It can smile back.B.It can use microphone.C.It can talk any topic for free.D.It can change if necessary.3.What’s Ravishankar’s attitude to Will’s replacing Human educators soon?A.Optimistic.B.Doubtful.C.Unclear.D.Disapproving.4.What might be the best title for the passage?A.New High-tech Contributes to EducationB.The World’s First Digital Teacher Appears in Classroom.C.The World’s First Digital Teacher, a Help to StudentsD.New Zealand Will Replace Teachers in Classrooms答案以及解析1.答案:supplies解析:考查名词的单复数。

Two-thirds of people surveyed last year in 28 countries expressed low levels of trust in "mainstream institutions" of business, government and media.In “Who Can You Trust?" Botsman, an Oxford lecturer offers a timely and accessible framework for understanding what trust is, how it works, why it matters and how it is evolving. It is an important guidance to the obstacles and opportunities we face as a society if we are to repair and redefine trust.Through human history, trust has evolved in three basic stages: Local trust was enough when people lived in small communities and everybody knew everybody else; industrialization and urbanization required institutional trust so that people could trust complete strangers running governments, corporations, and standards for international trade, commerce and finance. We are now living through a massive global .shift of trust from institutions to individuals: distributed trust facilitated by high-tech platforms, many of which are run by the private sector.This shift is caused by several factors. First, accountability is unequal. Rich, powerful and well- connected individuals have been able to accumulate vast quantities of often undocumented wealth by avoiding tax and anti-bribery laws, while ordinary people are likely to be caught and punished for lawbreaking. Second, people in power are no longer seen to deserve greater respect as the details of their lives are exposed.Botsman does not prescribe how we deal with that. But if the old ways of giving and cancelling trust such as . voting, markets and consumer choice are no longer functioning, then we must change or replace them. Systems must be "driven democratically and rationally," become more "transparent, inclusive, and accountable" and, most important, be designed to "put people first," which profit-driven platforms have failed to do sufficiently.Tech executives are responding to the trust crisis mainly with promises of more and better technology. But Batsman warns that the responsibility for ensuring that therobots being used are trustworthy lies with the human beings who design and use them. We have not thought through how we hold those people accountable, let alone their robots. She warns against a natural tendency "to become over- reliant on machines." Ideally machines should be programmed to "understand" their own limitations and even seek human help or intervention.A growing number of people hope that new trust mechanisms can be established through the use of exciting new technologies such as the blockchain(区块链). In essence, blockchains are digital public ledgers of transactions that cannot be changed, thereby creating greater transparency and accountability and making corruption much harder.However, Botsman warns that the blockchain is no panacea for human trust. Whether blockchain systems lead to more accountable governance and a more just global economy will depend on their design and the intentions of those who build them. There is no app for fixing trust."Who Can You Trust?" does make a clear case for why it is important for the companies, governments and other institutions to be much more transparent and subject themselves to new mechanisms that can credibly hold them accountable. It is the only way they can hope to earn and maintain trust in the future.1. Which of the following orders of trust evolution is right?A. institutional trust→industrialized trust→individual trustB. urbanized trus→local trust→institutional trustC. local trust →institutional trust →distributed trustD. local trust→urbanized trust →individual trust2. What can we conclude from the passage?A. Profit-driven platforms pay no attention to the importance of people.B. It is the people who design and use technology that count in restoring trust.C. New technologies, such as the blockchain can prevent corruption from happening.D. People should rely on new technologies to create transparency and accountability.3. What do the underlined words“no panacea" mean?A. not a Herculean taskB. a hard nutC. not a cure-all medicineD. a catch -224. What's the author's attitude toward the possibility of using technology to restore trust?A. SupportiveB. NegativeC. IndifferentD. Skeptical每日一练(二).阅读下面短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选。

You may wonder why English have changed over time. Actually, all languages change and develop when difference cultures meet and communicate with each other.

Then gradually, English becomes less like German because those who ruled England spoke first Danish and late French. These settlers enriched the English language, especially i t’s vocabulary.

This decision was in order to help young people feel more engaged in politics. But it may also signal the change of social views regarding the beginning of adulthood.Adulthood has traditionally been defined by a combination of age and the achievement of social milestones(里程碑).Most countries have a legally defined age to determine when a person becomes an adult—the age of majority. In Australia,most states consider a person to be an adult in court at 18. The age of 18 is also consistent with other adult privileges, such as the right to purchase alcohol and to marry. However, 17-year-olds can serve in the army andget a driver's licence. The law defines adulthood on the basis of age and it also recognizes the process of becoming an adult as involving himself gradually in social responsibility. This legal approach to adulthood is mirrored in other countries, where there are differences between the age of majority and social responsibility given to young people.Socially, determinants of adulthood traditionally focus on a person taking increasing responsibility for their lives in various ways. Completing school, taking fulltime employment, getting married and parenthood—these are all observable indicators to determine when a person is viewed as an adult.Since the 1980s, however, people have achieved some of these observable milestones at later ages. Increased access to education has delayed young people leaving home and developing romantic relationships. Economic changes have also resulted in unstable employment markets and increases in costs of living,prompting many young people to remain at home and dependent on parents.Due to these social changes,our expectations of young people and their level of social responsibility have also changed. The recognition of a new life stage—emerging(发展初期的) adulthood—has been recommended to account for the changes to social milestones that have traditionally represented adulthood.21.What can we learn about adulthood from the text?A.People reach observable indicators much later.B.Age alone is a reliable determinant of adulthood.C.Participation in politics is a responsibility for adulthood.D.Economic changes mainly shift people's views on adulthood.22.What right can people enjoy at the age of 17 in most states of Australia?A.V oting.

These spots are usually away from popular tourist attractions, which means that to find them you'll need the spirit of an (explore).That's how I came across roujiamo when I was exploring Beijing.
